It’s been sixteen years since the Texas Longhorns and the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns played against one another. If you did the math correctly then, yes, you’re right, it was the 2005 season opener. Vince Young and the Horns were coming off their fourth straight double-digit win season and were preparing for one of the best seasons in college football history.
This time around things is a little different. The only team coming off a double-digit win season is Louisiana. In fact, the Cajuns have reached 10 wins in the past two seasons under head coach Billy Napier with three division titles in the Sun Belt Conference and one conference title.
